Quick Facts
- The nasal cavity is the space inside your nose where air passes through when you breathe.
- It is lined with mucous membranes that help to warm, humidify, and filter the air you breathe in.
- Located behind the nose, it is connected to the throat through the back of the mouth.
- When you smell something, the scent molecules travel through the nasal cavity to reach your olfactory receptors in the roof of the cavity.
- It is divided into two sections by a wall of cartilage called the septum.
- Small hairs called cilia line the nasal cavity and help to trap dust, pollen, and other particles before they can enter the lungs.
- When you have a cold or allergies, the nasal cavity can become inflamed and produce excess mucus.
- Structures called turbinates inside the area help to increase the surface area for filtering and humidifying air.
- It plays a crucial role in your sense of taste, as the sense of smell is closely linked to the perception of flavor.
- In some animals, such as dogs, the nasal cavity is much larger and more complex, allowing for a highly developed sense of smell.
